slevelt, #NowPlaying Steel Pulse – Handsworth Revolution @vinylrecords
I think more than any genre I am at the moment enjoying #reggae on #vinyl – also, I have so much still to discover here; to my shame I only vaguely knew this fantastic Birmingham (UK) band until recently.
icastico, Max Roach - Percussion Bitter Sweet @vinylrecords #vinyl #jazz #protestMusic #CrateDigging #nowPlaying
Brilliant protest music that is unfortunately still relevant
jared, @icastico @vinylrecords I got a copy of this a few weeks ago— fantastic album! Roach is my favorite, and he doesn’t hold back
icastico, There are tons of used Roach records in the bins here in Seattle this week. I think someone has dumped a big collection.
He is a master. Met him when I was in high school (like 1981 or 1982). He did a workshop with our jazz band and I was one of the 3 drummers. Great musical mind.

slevelt, good morning! #NowPlaying Miles Davis - We Want Miles #vinyl #jazz @vinylrecords
one of the records I grew up with, courtesy of my budding trumpet player older brother, and still one of my absolute favourites, so I got myself my own copy.
dnanian, Milt Jackson - Jazz ‘n’ Samba
Starting this LP and asking…”what’s all this about Samba, then, Milt?” is forgivable…because all of side 1 is the “Jazz”. The “Samba” kicks in with side 2 and you can’t blame Bags for wanting to cash in a little.
The liner notes are amusing: “…spoke of (samba) as ephemeral and predicted that overproduction would run it into the ground.”
RvG definitely turned the dials up to 11 when recording this one…maybe 12.
dnanian, That full liner note graf:
“It is a curious and gratifying fact that although almost three years have elapased since Stan Getz decided to bring the jazz samba to North American audiences, the consequent commercial uproar did not turn out to be a nine-day wonder.” (Cont…)
peterhoneyman, @dnanian “nine-day wonder” seems oddly specific

benthos, @TheVinylApe @vinylrecords
It's important to have a good sized bag that qualifies as a "personal item", separate from the carry-on bag. It's remarkable how much you can fit under a seat. 💺
TheVinylApe, @benthos @vinylrecords I travel very light. I never check baggage. Ever.
So, I take a big duffel bag for the overhead, which I lay a sweatshirt across the bottom in.
I take the 10-15 records I usually find and wrap them in a pillowcase, and make sure they’re snug and secure, and then put the clothes I DIDNT leave behind and neatly elastic them individually, rolled up, and lay them on top. It’s heavy….but always the right size.
Been doing this for 30 years. 😂
Whiskeyomega, The album before the one everyone bought.
A fussy thing that needs cleaning well to get the best out of it. Just guess it wasn't pressed heavily
Still sounds good after 2 wet cleans.M83 - Saturdays = Youth
Whiskeyomega, Sunday nignt chill as its been a busy weekend.

andrew, Some more #RobinTrower - not as well known as Bridge of Sighs but still amazing. I can’t beleive I hadn’t heard of this guy before sometime in the last year…I have a lot of stuff to catch up on. Pretty sure I got this record from a dollar bin, and it’s in great shape. A good vacuum cleaning helped for sure.
icastico, He’s one of the best and his recent albums are solid additions to his discography

guyjantic, @icastico @vinylrecords I am delighted to scroll by this randomly. I have listened to this album almost since the year of its release. It's an all-time favorite of mine.
icastico, It’s a good one.

slevelt, good morning! #NowPlaying Cannonball Adderley - Somethin’ Else #vinyl #jazz @vinylrecords
I love Cannonball Adderley and in particular his collaborations with his brother Nat, but on this instead we get Miles Davis on probably the best record where he’s credited as session musician.
icastico, Tristan Welch - 40 hours #vinyl @vinylrecords #ambient #loops #experimentalMusic #DIY #NowPlaying
A little known gem from my collection. Recommended
thesizzler, The first album I bought on CD. This #vinyl edition not only puts that version to shame, but obliterates the earlier wax pressing. Richard Lloyd and Robert Quine on the same album is noteworthy enough, but "classic" status requires songs and Girlfriend has them in spades. @vinylrecords
benthos, Stanley Turrentine and The Three Sounds - "Blue Hour" (1961)
One of the crown jewels of the #BlueNote catalog has been reissued. I love my mono original of this, scratches and all, but this new stereo reissue is terrific. Ideal rainy day music.

puffer, Filling another self-inflicted wound in my record collection from my great record purge of yore. I guess my thinking was it’s not my favorite Minutemen record… anyway. Glad to have it back.
